What’s so great about North Carolina’s Outer Banks? You can drive to the OBX in less than half a day from most of the East Coast, for one thing. Once you get there, you’ll find family-friendly beaches, romantic sunsets, and tons of things to do. Renting a vacation home in North Carolina gives you the freedom to set your own schedule. Don’t let your hotel tell you the pool’s only open till 8 pm or breakfast is from 7-9 am—at your vacation rental in North Carolina, the pool will be open 24/7, and if you feel like rolling out of bed at the crack of noon, that’s your prerogative.
Many Outer Banks vacationers opt for a beach cottage in Nags Head, one of the prettiest towns in North Carolina. There’s 11 miles of beach here, so you’ll be sure to find a spot that suits you. Bring binoculars for bird-watching.
